Shibbyland Posted November 4, 2021 Posted November 4, 2021 Hi All, I've finally upgraded to an Nvme drive solely for DCS. I moved the files over to the new drive and altered the shortcuts to direct them to the new drive. However, when I uninstalled DCS from the drive my OS is on, I lost all my shortcuts. How can I get them back, particularly the ones in the start menu such as for repair and update? Thanks
MAXsenna Posted November 4, 2021 Posted November 4, 2021 Do yourself a favour, and start using Skatezilla's excellent launcher/updater app, and you'll have no need for any shortcut. Sent from my MAR-LX1A using Tapatalk

Shibbyland Posted November 5, 2021 Author Posted November 5, 2021 Ok thanks, but lets just say I want to get my start menu shortcuts back, how do I do that? I can launch or update DCS by entering the 'bin' folder but I can't see an option to repair. I'd like to add Eagle Dynamics to my start menu so that I can update or repair the game without launching it. I've tried redownloading to pick up those missing items but as I already have the install on my drive, it won't let me do it.
